Economics: The Economist Guide
The definitive Economist guide to the world of economics

Economics. Sometime called the "dismal science", it's a discipline and topic that's often seen as dull; mysterious at best. And yet it's crucial to understanding the world we live in today. From humble beginnings in Ancient Greece to the today's mammoth global system, it's never been more important to know your macro from your micro and your fiscal from your monetary policy. Bestselling author Philip Coggan lifts the veil with an entertaining, no-nonsense guide that combines an overview of the development and scope of the field with an all-new A-Z of key economics concepts and terms. Crisp, sophisticated and often surprising, this is the complete guide to what economics is - and why it matters.
